To all of you O'Kane boys and families! Carole was a very beautiful person and I am so grateful I had the chance to know her! She was so easy to talk to and would genuinely care whatever it was you were saying to her. More people should take a page out of her book. She will surely be missed at our get togethers at Jeff and Sue's! Who will bring the shrimp?? LOL What a kind, soft soul----a blessing for sure! Love to you all!

Randy,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I didn't get to know you mother very well but I know she was an amazing person having met you, the man she raised. You and your family are in my thoughts. Hugs, Peggy
